Description

I know the ellipse is created by makerjs from many small circles and when I export it to a dxf file, it consists of many lines connected together. Is there any way for me to convert it into a single line like a circle? Thanks for reading.

Research direction

Start by reading the ellipse model implementation and the DXF export path to determine how ellipse geometry is represented and why it becomes connected line segments. Check the existing circle export behavior for comparison. Done means establishing whether a native single-ellipse DXF entity can be exported and documenting or implementing the supported result.
